[Bug 1198] Problems with King's Quest 2 remake from Tierra

------- Additional Comments From winebug at flonet.net  2003-28-06 07:20 -------
Bug comments restored from Gmane.org:

Wine 20021125 (cvs; wine-cvs-opengl-121502-1.i386.rpm)
RedHat 8
Some windows .dlls installed by windows programs, however none related to
directx (I think)

Game info: http://appdb.winehq.com/appview.php?appId=1097
Using game version 1.1

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install the game (it has a windows-based installer, works ok)
2) Run setup (wine winsetup.exe, works ok)
3) run the game (wine KQ2VGA.exe)
   The game loads (slowly), with some errors appearing in the console and
   in the game.
   When the main screen finally appears, the mouse is not usable. Thus the game
   cannot be played. The game is working, though, try for example pressing
   ctrl-q

Note: The game is based on Adventure Game Studio (AGS), which is closed source,
but free (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk).
Furthermore, AGS is using
Allegro game library (http://alleg.sourceforge.net) for
multimedia. Allegro is
open-source. 

Although Allegro is available for linux as well, the author of AGS is not
willing to port it to linux (http://www.agsforums.com/acfaq.htm). Since the
backend (Allegro) is available in open source, it should be relatively easy to
understand what is not working in wine in respect to AGS and King's Quest 2...

Solving problems with this particular game many other AGS/Allegro games would
probably work as well.

Will attach debug-logs later...

Here are the error messages:
--------------------
When running the game, it displays following error:
"Video playing error: Could not create a CLSID_MultiMediaStream object. Check
you have run regsvr32 amstream.dll"
---------------------
The console shows following errors:

Well, then have you run it ?
Is there an amstream.dll at all ?

------- Additional Comments From moxh <at> hotmail.com  2002-12-22 10:43 -------
Wine doesn't have such file. I tried to run the game with that amstream.dll
copied from win98se, but it didn't help much. 

Now the game complains that:
"Video playing error: AddMediaStream failed"

and the console log says:

Anyways, although that media stream (video clips) thing would be worked out, the
bigger problem right now is that the mouse doesn't work...

Grr, the attachment submitting isn't working for me (w/ mozilla or galeon)

Here are the debug-logs:

The first one is a full log upto first error message given by the program
http://aiesec.tky.hut.fi/test/full1.log.bz2

The second one is a full log all the way to the main menu, with some mouse
movement and clicking (does not do anything, even the cursor in the game does
not move)
http://aiesec.tky.hut.fi/test/full2.log.bz2

The last one is a tail -100 of the full2 -log
http://aiesec.tky.hut.fi/test/last100.log

(and these are without the amstream.dll)

Have you tried this patch (it is not yet in CVS):
http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-patches/2002/12/0327.html

Most likely dinput bug.
Get latest CVS and apply not-yet-committed wine-patches mailing list dinput patch.

------- Additional Comments From moxh <at> hotmail.com  2002-12-22 15:13 -------
I used the sources from the winehq page (20021229) and the patch that was
mentioned in the previous comments. It does seem to work a bit better now: The
cursor is "locked" into the cursor of the game. However, the cursor does not
move anywhere (no matter how much you move the mouse)...

Here's the error output...

Create a --debugmsg +relay,+dinput,+x11drv,+event log file and check out via
http://search.microsoft.com why your mouse movements don't
seem to get through...

------- Additional Comments From moxh <at> hotmail.com  2002-12-22 17:11 -------
Ho hum. Apparently it's a bit unstable, but I actually can get mouse working by
using the patch. When I put Wine to use desktop-mode and the game setup to use
full screen, I'm able to play the game, whee :)

The videos might not work still, but the game is playable...
